Tompkins Square Park

Mumford & Sons

Transposer:

Intro: Verse: Oh babe meet me in Tompkins Square Park I wanna hold you in the dark One last time just one last time Oh babe can you tell what’s on my tongue? Can you guess that I’ll be gone? With the twilight With the twilight Chorus: No flame burns forever oh no You and I both know this all too well Most don’t even last the night No they don’t they say they don’t Verse: Oh babe I’ve never been so lost I wanna hear you lie One last time just one last time But oh babe I really wish you would not cry I only ever told you one lie When it could have been a thousand It might as well have been a thousand Chorus: But no flame burns forever oh no You and I both know this all too well Most don’t even last the night No they don’t they say they don’t And we can talk it round again girl Round and round round and round again We could leave it out to die Leave it out just leave it out Bridge: (single strum) I never tried to trick you babe I just tried to work it out But I was swallowed up by doubt If only things were black and white Cause I just want to hold you tight Without holding back my mind Without holding back my mind Solo: x2 Chorus: No flame burns forever oh no You and I both know this all too well Most don’t even last the night.

La chanson évoque un moment de vulnérabilité et de mélancolie entre deux personnes qui se retrouvent pour une dernière fois dans un parc. L'un d'eux exprime son besoin de se rapprocher de l'autre, malgré le poids des doutes et des mensonges qui ont émaillé leur relation. Il y a une prise de conscience que rien n’est éternel, que même les plus belles passions peuvent s'éteindre rapidement, et que cela leur pèse. Les sentiments de regret, de tristesse et de désespoir s’entremêlent, tout en cherchant à profiter de cet instant passé ensemble. Le tout se déroule dans une atmosphère nocturne, marquée par la lumière douce du crépuscule.
